@numenorian Thats definitely interesting! Thanks for updating. If my dexa changes next year Ill update with pics. Id be curious about how I would look with lower fat

@dedicatedqueenie Was your % measured with DEXA too? I'd be really curious to see! I have not seen a scan from someone shorter than me.

@amw88 Thanks for sharing your earlier post! I was a bit shocked that others were so shocked at my results, and that post helps to verify DEXA results in higher BF% for most.

@ruky Thanks for bringing this up about standards for lean body mass. I'm curious about this too as this was a huge concern of redditors for my results too. However on page 2 of my readout it said I have 6.17 kg/m2 Relative Skeletal Muscle Index, which is over the recommended value of 5.45 for...

@ruky I appreciate it!

@ruky Awesome, looking forward to it!

@ruky Thanks! Hopefully eventually these misconceptions of what body fat %s look like will be shattered.

@ruky Ooh, do you have a photo for that time?

@jacob9 It's definitely unhealthy. I just really like it and drink it maybe 2-3 times a week.

@ruky Yes, this truck services my area so I'm planning on doing it once a year. I think it's fun and motivating. The scale, body measurements, and blood results from physicals always just tell me I'm healthy, and while I like that, it can get boring. I think of this (knowing that I'll have such...

@ruky I see, I didn't upload all my pages but received some pretty cool information including that about my muscle mass in my arms/legs, bone density (mine was good), metabolic rate, and muscle imbalances in my limbs. I just like data :) Anyway it's been suggested that ethnicity could be...

@ruky FYI, I noticed they scanned you as a White female which could be less accurate because of differences in algorithms (e.g., taking in account average hydration).

@dawn16 Hmm it IS very steep there. I think I probably wouldn't do it for that price, but I already knew my body fat wasn't likely to be too low or too high, and I've always been pretty healthy by most indices (e.g., blood pressure, LDL and HDL cholesterol, heart rate, thyroid function, glucose...

@yakdip Hi, I think it depends more on the individuals' body fat and muscle distribution than their height. I have a short male friend with defined abs at 18% BF using DEXA. If your issue is that you don't want to lose weight but want abs, you can try re-comping (putting on muscle and losing fat).

Hi everyone! I've always been curious about DEXA scans and finally got the chance to do one when the BodySpec truck came around. My results, with many photos (possibly NSFW?) are here for anyone who is curious. I haven't really seen DEXA results for women with my body type (I am short and...
